Change your definition of Pacific SW

TOFA, you may want to change your definition of the Pacific SW. California has two distinct climate types. Southern California has a distinctly different climate from Northern California, which is more similar to the climate experienced by the Pacific NW. It would be far better to have a Northern California zone and a Southern California zone in your forecast rather than lumping them together as the Pacific SW.

Northern California

Middle California and Southern California have very different climates during the winter than Northern California. Starting at the Sutter Buttes and going to the Oregon border, is Northern California. Yes, we get the heat but, the mountains get more snow and the climate is cooler in the winter. Sacramento and the Delta/Bay areas get lots of fog. We are drier. Please don't lump Northern California with the rest of the state-so that we can have more accurate forecasts in the future.

You are wrong

California has four main climate regions and 3 climate zones. The zones are a subtropical climate zone, a hot tropical climate zone which is Southern California, and
the temperate climate zone Which is Northern California. The Climate regions are as follows Northern California, Pacific North West climate, Central Calfornia climate, Southern California climate, Pacific South West Climate. California also has a Mediterranean climate.

Riverside County

What kind of weather can the Riverside county expect from October 2019 into January 2020? Last year we had a very nice and unusually chilly Thanksgiving holiday. I was just wondering if we should expect the same this year. Please advise/thank you!!!

Winter 2018-2019 rainfall

Winter rainfall for the south turned out to be inaccurate and just the opposite of what you predicted. Rainfall in California was actually ABOVE normal, so much so that it ended the drought all over the state.

Amy you are wrong

Northern California

Actually the drought ended in March of 2019. I agree that California should be split up into different climates. In Northern California, we have the rains that fill up our lakes and rivers and go through the delta down south. I weather is closer to southern Oregon's weather. If I go by what is listed it is wrong. It didn't predict snowmageddon that dumped so much snow on us after our wildfires left our soil unprotected.
